[Bphyfaculty] FW: CNAS TA Application Open Winter 2022

[Kathy Redd]

Dear Selected Faculty,

The message below went to students in selected majors this morning.  You will start to receive e-mails asking you to approve TA applications for your students.  TAAC would like to encourage you to only approve applications for students whom you want to TA in Winter 2022.  It was very difficult in Fall 2021 for Departments to have many very late resignations from appointed TAs.  If you have funding that is flexible and you can have your student serve as a TA in Winter 2022 it will be helpful to the college and Departments.  You are welcome to have students in non-CNAS majors and Masters students apply if they are qualified to TA CNAS classes.

Thank you for everything you are doing!

Kathy

Subject: CNAS TA Application Open Winter 2022

Dear CNAS Life Sciences Graduate Students,

Winter 2022 TA applications for courses in the life sciences (BCH, BIOL, BPSC, CBNS, ENTM, MCBL) are now available! The deadline to submit an application is Friday, October 8, 2021.  The system will shut down at 11:59pm on 10/08/21 and no late applications will be accepted.

Please logon to http://taonline.ucr.edu to submit your application as soon as possible. If you submitted an application for a previous term, you are still required to log in each quarter, review or edit your course requests, and Confirm/Submit your application in order to be considered for the next term.


*         Please discuss TAing with your Major Professor and only apply if you want to TA in Winter 2022



*         Masters Students and qualified students from non-CNAS majors are encouraged to apply



*         If you cannot find your Major Professor on the drop-down please let me or your Student Services Advisor know and we will get them added immediately so you can complete your application


*         If you do not request any classes for Winter 2022, you will not appear on the list of potential TAs for the class.  Neither the instructors nor the TAAC members can see your application and you are unlikely to be appointed.  It is important to request all classes for which you are qualified when completing your application. This ensures that you appear for consideration to many instructors/departments.



*         We are also concerned that students do not list all relevant previous coursework.  The committee uses previous coursework information to determine suitability to TA a particular course.  In some cases, although you did not request a specific course on your list, they will consider appointing you if you have an appropriate background.  Failure to list all prior relevant coursework can reduce your chances of appointment.



*         The TA Online Manual has a list of materials to gather before you apply for the first time.  It is available via link from the front page of http://taonline.ucr.edu


If you have any trouble with the application or have questions, please let me know right away and I will be happy to help.

Kathy
